One of the most pussy moves I've ever seen an NBA Superstar make. It'd almost be like Stockton or Malone or Gary Payton joining the Bulls. Just a bitch move to win a championship.

Im not even going to watch next season. Unless an injury happens we all know GS will win it all. Save me the Cavs can beat them crap. It's not happening. They took the Cavs to 7-games and just added a top 3 NBA Superstar. The Cavs will not be able to stop that offense consistently enough to beat them in a series, no one will.

I understand this point of view, but I also chuckle at the hypocrisy. And this isn't directed at you specifically as I certainly don't know all of your views on things, more just the overall response that is very much in this camp. We want our sports heroes to only care about winning, and not the money. But when they make decisions that are specifically to win, we still beat them up. I get that there's more to it than that (loyalty is also a key virtue we hope for with "our guys"), but still interesting.
